Welcome to Tiki Central Franco.

"Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails" excellent book!

I actually count 28 recipes in the pisco chapter in the 1972 Trader Vic's Bartender Guide. Four are Trader Vic originals. Of those the most interesting ones may be the Boomerangs.

Boomerang 1
1/2 oz light Puerto Rican rum
1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz pisco
1/4 oz passion fruit nectar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 dash angostura bitters
shake with ice cubes. strain into chilled cocktail glass

Boomerang 2
1 oz pisco
1 oz light Puerto Rican rum
3/4 oz passion fruit nectar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
shake with ice cubes. strain into chilled cocktail glass

Beachbum Berry's book "Remixed" has two recently created recipes based on pisco. The Cuzco Fizz and the Xtabay. Here's a link to it: Beachbum Berry Remixed - Amazon USA
